    The first onside kick

    Someone correct me, but I don't think the play clock EVER started on that play...

    UNC academic scandal...

    Maybe hoping for 4 years of MG > 1 or 2 years of MP???

    Practice Video - OL vs DL Drills

    Alvis was REALLY coming into his own when he went down last year, imo. I fully expect it to take another 10 weeks before he begins to resemble the player we saw last year as he continues to gain confidence in that knee. I hope (and have no reason to expect otherwise) that the coaches are being...

    VIDEO: Brian Ferentz Gets Candid

    I love the Wisconsin comment..... Yes, that game should have been a victory...Though frustrating, I think it's still safe to say that the coaches take their own mistakes to heart more (much more) than anyone realizes... It is fun to actually hear a coach say it, though...KF would NEVER say...

    PTL Quote

    Agreed. Randy Larson is a lightning rod guy & a lot of guys dislike him because he's the consumate smartest guy in the room -- just ask him. He's as polarizing a personality as you're going to find. However, he's also got a damn good basketball mind & has been around the game & Hawkeye...

    **OFFICIAL CUBS REGULAR SEASON THREAD**

    There is a right & wrong way to handle traded players (esp. veteran players). The wrong way to do it is to have the deal leaked to the media before it is finalized & approved by all parties.

    Wyatt Lohaus

    Can someone get me a translator?!? I thought he looked a lot like a role player to me as well. A heady player, but definitely not a difference maker...However, I spoke with someone closely tied to the ICW program that thinks the sky is the limit for this kid & that he had 'take the game over'...

    Iowa Offers Jay Scheel

    He is a game-changer @ QB & I would be very surprised if he moves from there. Maquoketa had the best 3A HS football team I have seen in a long; long time with athletes & speed all across the field & Scheel was electrifying -- in a class by himself, athletically (as a Soph). He is the real...

    Anthony Morgan

    Dondre Alexander is a better football player (but its close)... Morgan is definitely a better bball player.

    Perhaps, as long as he stops taking his hitting cues from Soriano...

    Castro in a word: Selfish. Totally agree with your post. Just terrible as a situational hitter. And, incidentally, he's horrible defensively, too...

    Iowa Athlete Suing Head Coach for Medical Condition

    Coach couldn't have been pushing the all that hard, as didn't we have the worst women's crew team in the B10?

    QB Vandenberg vs. a Bear, who would win?

    QB Vandenberg vs. a Bear, who would win?

    I killed a blackbird this morning that was relentlessly crapping on my car. And I did not eat it.

    Rizzo Time May be Near

    Duff...he wasn't 35 four years ago. He's played bad baseball for quite sometime now. (Truth be told, his numbers were always pretty 'hollow'). Why do you keep referencing his age? He should have been better at 31, 32, 33...The players on good teams execute in key situations, they learn the...

    Rizzo Time May be Near

    No, he sucks...and blatantly so...and has basically his entire Cubs tenure. He was at least passable his first year, but not relative to his previous year, when he went 40-40 & scored 119 runs (in a *hitty lineup). Other than being by all accounts a great teammate, he is garbage. His K rate...

    Rizzo Time May be Near

    I'll vilify Soriano. He sucks and is clearly almost 100% unteachable in his approach. His contract will have hamstrung the organization for the better part of a decade. He sucks. And apparently is a very good teammate (that still sucks). I'm sure he feels horrible now. (And yes, I'm...

    "Big Toe" of the Ferentz Era.

    I endorse Nate Kaeding as being my 'alter-ego', not only because of his on-field exploits, but also because he is a natvie Iowa Cityan & fellow Wesy High Trojan. Dude was a winner, pure & simple...

    Nick Toon before McNutt????

    I actually have a bigger beef w/Devier Posey being picked so high. Dude dropped as many balls as he caught and -- iirc -- had quite a few character issues along the way, as well...
